TYE 150: How a no-sugar diet can change your life with Netta Gorman
10/04/22 • 31 min
When Netta Gorman stopped eating sugar, it not only changed her life, but also the lives of hundreds of others. She now helps people eliminate sugar through her coaching programs and immensely popular “Life After Sugar” podcast.
But Netta’s journey to the land of no sugar, flour or sweeteners wasn’t easy (as we’ve all tried and mostly failed). But after a lifetime of digestive issues, doctor’s visits and failed efforts, Netta caved to this small but life-changing recommendation of a Nutritional Therapist. Her results were so effective, she’s now dedicated to guiding others past the emotional and societal challenges of a no-sugar diet.
Netta Gorman is on The YES Effect podcast to talk about the challenges and benefits of ditching sugar for good and how she turned her success story into a life of helping others say “yes” to better health and feel free from sugar cravings and mindless snacking.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why sugar and flour cause so many digestive issues
- Netta’s long and difficult journey to finally eliminating sugar, flour and sweeteners
- The immediate effects of a no-sugar diet
- How sugar affects weight, energy level and digestion
- Why social pressure makes it difficult to stop eating sugar
- Why eliminating sugar cravings starts with removing your emotional attachment to sugary foods
- How Netta turned her personal success into a business
Quotables:
“I couldn’t imagine not doing what I’d always done.”
“If you want something different, you have to do something different.”
“I got hooked on feeling great and that’s what keeps me motivated.”
“Social pressure to consume sugar is strong. When you don’t consume sugar anymore, the social pressure to consume it again is even stronger.”

TYE 149: I wasn’t meant to be the prettiest girl in school
Jealousy and comparison can shatter us. But when we focus on others’ success, money, fame, appearance, situation or whatever, we forget the truth - the truth of our own gifts and the true story of what’s beneath the surface.
I wanted to share this quick story about a girl in my high school - hands down the prettiest and most popular girl in the school. Every fibre in my short, geeky body badly wanted to be her. Turns out, there was so much more to the story, and it made me forever grateful for my own gifts and for being exactly who I be.
I hope this inspires you to focus on your gifts and appreciate exactly where you are on your journey.
Please listen, review and share with someone who needs to hear it too.
Quotables:
“If you are trying to build a castle, make sure you don’t build it on sand. Build it on something that’s going to last. Build it on something real. Build it on something that is true and authentic to you.”
“There are going to be times when you look at other people and think ‘this is grossly unfair that this is my life and other people get to have that’ but sometimes you can’t see over the fence.”
“If ever you find yourself in a position where you feel like ‘this just sucks, it’s hard and I wish I had that', just keep using and building the tools in your own tool box to get you to the destination you are meant to be.”

TYE 151: How To Overcome The Fear of Asking Questions (A Personal Story)
At some point we developed this fear of asking questions. For so many people, the thought of potentially hearing “no” is crippling enough to pass up the incredible possibility of “yes.” But as the saying goes, “you’ll never know until you ask,” and not asking at all, ironically, leads to that same dreaded “no” by default. So how do we find the courage to ask questions?
In this episode, I’m sharing two occasions where - scared as I was - I took a shot at asking. One resulted in a business deal with one of the biggest luxury car companies in the world (for a firefighter calendar I was producing), and the other a close friendship with a celebrity musician who accepted my random and totally ridiculous fangirl request for a drum lesson.
I hope these stories inspire you to look past the chance of “no” and envision what your life could look like if simply asking the question brings you a life-changing “yes.”
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- How to overcome the fear of asking questions
- Why you’ll likely hear “yes” more than “no” if you just ask
- How I landed a sponsorship deal with Lamborghini
- Why we inevitably forget hearing “no”
- How I became close friends with former P!nk drummer & speaker, Mark Schulman
- How to find the courage to ask questions
- Why we need to normalize asking questions
This conversation was from a candid, behind-the-scenes chat with my producer, but I wanted to share it with you. Let me know your thoughts on this episode and the topic of asking questions. Is there a “yes” out there for you? (contacts below).
